ASSIGNED NUMBERS

Unlike the MPAA we do not assign one inscrutable rating based on age, but 3 objective ratings for SEX/NUDITY, VIOLENCE/GORE and PROFANITY on a scale of 0 to 10, from lowest to highest, depending on quantity and context.

VIOLENCE/GORE 5 - During a drawn-out shootout between two men, a teen boy and three police officers we see the two men firing guns at the police officers who duck to avoid being hit and they fire back; the windows of police cars shatter, a truck that is driving by is hit by stray gunfire, a police officer shoots one of the gunmen in the shoulder (we see a small amount of blood on the man's shoulder and he winces in pain) and the shootout ends when a girl wanders into the line of fire and the gunmen run away.► A man steals another man's truck, we see the owner of the truck chasing the thief, he grabs the steering wheel and shouts at the thief as he drives away, other cars honk and swerve to avoid hitting the owner as he hangs from the side of the truck, he punches the thief and jerks the wheel, the truck swerves and the man is knocked off the truck; he rolls to safety, the truck crashes into a bush (the airbag deploys but the driver is unharmed and runs away), we see the owner struggle to stand up after injuring his foot and we see him being bandaged by an EMT (no blood is visible and we later learn that the man's infant son had been in the back of the truck and he is unharmed).► A man tackles a police officer chasing another man, the man punches the police officer repeatedly as he is pinned to the ground, the man is then tackled by three police officers, and they pin him against the ground and handcuff him while he shouts; we later see one police officer with a small amount of blood coming from his nose and on his lip. Several young men and men are seen kicking a teen boy lying on the ground, and another man tells the men to stop and we see the boy struggle to stand up with a bruise and small cut on his face. Two men run from a police standoff, one of the men chases a young girl into a tree house, he is pulled down from the tree by a police officer, and the two men fight until the police officer flips the man on his back and handcuffs him.

A man runs into the side of a car, he braces himself and continues running, unharmed.► A man tells another man that the man's young daughter had been in a car accident caused by a drunk driver; we see the man's wife crying and it is implied that a doctor informed them that their daughter died and we later see the girl's funeral (neither the car accident nor the body are seen). An EMT bandaging a man's foot (no blood is visible) warns the man that he could have died when he grabbed onto the steering wheel of a moving car. Two police officers discuss how a man had held onto a steering wheel while his truck was being stolen in order to save his infant son in the back of the vehicle.► It is implied that two police officers tell a man to act in an intimidating manner toward another man that is being arrested; the man says unthreatening phrases in Spanish (we see the translation) while the other man appears terrified and shouts that the man is going to kill him (the police officers laugh).

A CAVEAT: We've gone through several editorial changes since we started covering films in 1992 and some of our early standards were not as stringent as they are now. We therefore need to revisit many older reviews, especially those written prior to 1998 or so; please keep this in mind if you're consulting a review from that period. While we plan to revisit and correct older reviews our resources are limited and it is a slow, time-consuming process.
